I am currently a PhD candidate in Neurosciences at Stanford University. I am a National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellow, a National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine Ford Foundation Predoctoral Scholar, and a Stanford University Knight-Hennessy Scholar!
My research investigates the impact of neighborhood disadvantage (e.g., poverty and crime exposure) on adolescent neurodevelopment and its downstream effects on substance use. Additionally, I examine how methodological practices in human neuroimaging impact the generalizability of neuroscience research.
Prior to starting at Stanford University, I worked as a post-baccalaureate computational research assistant at the Deutsches Zentrum für Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen (DZNE) (German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases) in Berlin, Germany, followed by a research assistant position in neuroscience at Yale University in New Haven, CT.
